The advantage of this method is that you do not have to write down your ideas in a strict or ridged order all at one time, but allows you to start in a basically random way. This enables you to ‘categorize’ your ideas together as you would see fit after you are sure that you have all the things you want listed about your your Internet marketing venture in your plan, this will help to make the whole planning procedure more practical and easy to follow.

How much money do you intend to invest initially into your online business?

How much income do you expect to make, let’s say after your first six months to a year, and what or how will you go about getting it?

These are just a few of the types of questions that you the new online marketer should be asking and answering for yourselves to add to your plan to lay out a crystal clear route to what you will need to do and know to bring your Internet marketing business plan together.

It is also the time for you do the research into things like; if you intend on using blogs to promote your business do you also intend to further monetize them by adding “Adsense” or other ads associated with your niche to them?
